Blogging Roller: JavaOne!

JavaOne!

I'll be at JavaOne this year, my first time ever. I haven't been to a real conference or to San Franciso in a couple of years, so I am pretty excited about the whole deal. I'm looking forward to meeting the Java bloggers, too. For example, I've never met Matt Raible or Russell Beattie or Simon Brown, or any of the other Java bloggers and I hope to change that next week. I also hope to hook up with some of the Sun Bloggers to talk about Roller at Sun. Along those lines: Atlassian is organizing a meetup that looks to be interesting.

Hey Dave, Word has it that Hani is out there as well. Why don't you give 'm a big kiss on the cheek. Just to show that you appreciate his criticism and thank him for using Roller ;)

Dave, Have a great time. I actually chose NFJS over JavaONE. I was at JavaONE in 1999 (back in the heyday). It's a great time as well as a sales pitch. The best sessions were the ones by authors and consultants in the industry. The ones held by Sun were mostly pitches.

Be sure to check out Fisherman's Wharf and China town while in San Fran.

I won't attending, but I'll be on the floor for at least one of the days, and I'll see you guys on Monday night!
